Cardinal McElroy officially was welcomed to the Cathedral of St. Matthew as @msgrjameson greeted the cardinal with a handshake, a pot of holy water and a sprinkler, with which Cardinal McElroy sprinkled the altar servers, deacons, and clergy who formed the welcoming group just inside the doors.

God has so constructed the body...
so that there may be no division in the body,
but that the parts may have the same concern for one another.

If one part suffers, all the parts suffer with it;
if one part is honored, all the parts share its joy.

The Holy Year is an opportunity to change our life, reevaluate our thinking, and start anew by learning from Jesus and placing our hope in God. This is the meaning of the Jubilee pilgrimage. #JubileeAudience

Please, let us continue to pray for peace! War is a human defeat; it does not solve problems but only brings destruction. So many children and innocents die! Let us pray for all countries at war. Let us always pray for peace.

May we joyfully and humbly cultivate the little seed entrusted to us. We need the patience of those who sow without expecting anything, knowing how to wait for God’s surprises.

God has delivered us from the power of darkness,
into the kingdom of his Beloved Son,
in whom all fullness is pleased to dwell.

In His presence, we call upon him to hear the many needs of those in our community and throughout the world.

[msgrjameson @msgrjameson]

Just and merciful Father,

Your Son Jesus was born in a rude stable,
but became for us a king like no other king.

May we imitate this Shepherd-King who lays down his life for his sheep.

Listen to you people, as we call out to you in need.

#AllSoulsDay Prayer from @CatholicRelief

Dear God of mercy,

I pray this day for all souls,
both known and unknown to me,
who, although touched by death,
have not yet entered your heavenly kingdom...

Grant them eternal rest, oh Lord.

Amen.

[Vatican News @VaticanNews]

Gospel of the Day (Matthew 25,31-46)

"Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me."
